Spring Has Sprung

 

Spring is here in Eagle Point and I am so excited about it.  I am still getting used to the fact that it still isn't freezing cold with snow on the ground.  That has been the best thing about moving away from Wyoming...is leaving the wind and snow behind.

 

Danni loves to be outside.  I hate that we don't have a nice yard anymore for her to explore so our front walkway will have to do.  There is this bush that has all these white flowers and Danni thinks they are great to munch on.  I have to keep on eye on her or she will bend down and bite off a flower like she is doing in the picture.  It is pretty funny....I just hope they are not poisonous. 

 

On our way home from Grandma's funeral Hailey got a bad stomach bug that had the worst puke and diarrhea.  Little Danni got it next and it was not fun at all.  Poor girl would puke all night and then we would have as my mom calls it "Code Liquid Brown" multiple times a day. 

 

She looks like some wild child in this picture.

 When I first walked by her I thought how did she manage to pee on her back...I soon discovered it wasn't pee.

 

We have spring break this week and a friend from church asked if I wanted to go up north to do some hiking and see some waterfalls.  The kids were excited.  So we packed a lunch and took off.  It was beautiful with temperatures in the 70's.  Oregon does have some beautiful things to see here.

 The boulders were huge.

 This was the only place they were allowed to wade in.  The other parts had too much rapids going on.

 Gabe on the edge...I was nervous the whole time.  He just told me to relax.  yeah right.

 

 Found this on my camera...Gabber selfie.

 

They have this huge rock that has been worn down that the kids could slide down.  They did that for a long time.  

 Gabe sliding on his feet down.

 Lexie on the rock slide. 

 Here comes Logan.

 These two added sand to every thing they consumed. 

 On top of the rock slide.

 Cool waterfall....it was too high up for my liking.

Where are the guard rails people?  I was a nervous wreck.

 

On the way home we stopped at this little ice cream shop in Shady Cove that was super cheap and you got a ton of ice cream.  After a hot day hiking this was the best ending.

 

 

 

 

 

Esquibels and Southwicks.

 

Soccer season is gearing up again.  Lexie has been waiting all winter for it to start again.  The girls loves soccer.  The league here is really nice and they are very professional.  I am excited for her to learn some great things this year.

 

 

 

This past week the kids had mustache day at school and Hailey wanted one also.  She wore that thing for 2 days and didn't want to wash it off.  She could pull off that mustache really well though.
